Hamilton Mounted Chronometer Watch Model 22 With Complete Inner Box, Not Running
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:45190666 | Maker: Hamilton |
| Type: Chronometer | Original/Reproduction: Antique Original |
| Country/Region of Origin: United States |
Offered here is a World War II era Hamilton Mounted Chronometer Watch Model 22 complete with its inner two section box. Overall measurements are 9" by 6" by 6". This is a little out of my wheelhouse, so I have tried to give you pictures from every angle so you can make your own judgments. The watch is not running, but the setting mechanism works fine and the winder turns well. Am guessing that it probably just needs a good professional going over. Otherwis...e, all the glass is intact and the brass parts all appear to be there, working freely, and are in good shape. The box itself does have a few scuffs and dings but nothing life threatening. The chronometer itself weighs nearly 5 pounds, so I am allowing 7# for safe shipping. Any questions? Please ask prior to bidding and I will do my best to answer promptly. Thank you!
